I dealt with this a little in my novel paper, but thought I'd open up for you guys on the blog. Okay, for real, I'm not fooling anybody. I need posts. Anyway, we've talked a bit about the value of life. Randy's (are we allowed to call you Randy?) post on Bicentennial Man mentioned it a little bit, in that it questioned whether it was necessary to be human to be fully worthwhile. My question is, is that enough? Does humanity on its own impart worth? Why? How much worth? And is it equal for all humans?

My Christian perspective says our worth comes from God, that we have as much worth as He gives us. Our worth is worth His, in effect, since He chose to give Himself for us. Is that answer enough?
